Syntax
szInput - The file name and path of the PDF file to be opened.
For example;
c:\contacts.pdf
c:\my documents\contacts.pdf
szText - Specify the text to add to the PDF document.
If the angle parameter is set to 0 (zero) then the szText parameter can contain a small subset of HTML commands to affect the formatting output to PDF. If an angle is specified the text is output as-is.
The following HTML tags are supported: <br>, <b>, <i>, <strong>, <em>, <u>, <p align=left>, <p align=right>, <p align=center>, <font size=x> and <font color=c>. For the color attribute of the font tag you can use an RGB color specified in hexadecimal. For example <font color="#3A498C">. You can also specify a CMYK color by using eight hexadecimal digits and omitting the #. For example <font color="5C238F02">.
szPages - Specify the pages in the PDF on which to add text.
The szPages parameter has been defined as a string variable so a range of pages can be specified.
If szPages are left blank (for example "") all pages in the PDF document will be affected.
If szPages denotes a single page (for example "1") the specified page will be affected.
If szPages denoted a range of pages (for example "1, 3-4, 7") the specified range of pages will be affected.
iLeft - The left position to begin text output.
iTop - The top position to begin text output.
iWidth - The width of the text output.
iAngle - The angle of the text output. Must be between 0 and 360.
iFontSize - The font size for the output text.
